Madelyn Grace was born August 18th at 11:15pm. She was 7lbs 6oz and 19 1/2 inches long. She is absolutly perfect. :D

She was a week late and after 40 hours of labor I ended up having to have a c-section. She really didn't want to come. ;) But recovery is going great and she is the love of our life! The only problem I had was getting a gluten-free meal from the hosptial. I had to send back my meals and it would take a couple hours to get the right one brought to me. My last meal they called and asked what I wanted so it was gluten-free but I was ready to go home by the time it came.

That's wonderful news!!! Congratulations!

Her face looks perfect! What a beauty!

She must have been snug as a bug in a rug, and just didn't want to come out!

What a beautiful happy little girl! Many best wishes for you both. When I read about people having a baby I always get choked up and reflect on the day my daughter was born, almost 14 years ago. She has been the single most wonderful gift of my life. I'm sure your daughter will fill that niche for you! Enjoy, try and get some rest and accept offers of help!

Thanks! Just wondering how you guys can see her. I tried to change my avatar to her picture but I still just see my dog. So does it work on everyone's computer but mine :unsure: I am just confused.

But thanks, we are so much in love with her that it is just crazy. Our ped. is setting us up with a ped. gastro. That way we know the best way to introduce wheat and the best time. Not to mention if she does end up with Celiac we will already have a dr. that we know. Of course I pray that she does not ever get Celiac and she has a strong tummy like her dad!

That happens to me sometimes too with the avatars, but I can see her just fine! She is so beautiful!

Congrats! She's a cutie!

Keep us posted on the guidance of the ped. gastro and when you end up introducing wheat etc. Hopefully your little girl won't have celiac, but if she does, I'm sure you can handle it.

PS: Cross your fingers for me please...we're trying to conceive!

Try hitting refresh on your computer if you can't see it. Usually I can see when someone changes it but if it doesn't once I hit refresh it has worked for me.

She's so cute :D

It would probably be from your cache--something that keeps certain aspects of a webpage stored for you so it's quicker to load. But it needs to update occasionally or else you'll see old information...usually it's pre-set to either search for a change whenever you visit the page, every so often, or never...etc. it should change soon enough or I'll tell you how to empty your cache and see all webpages updated again...

I can see her, though. She's wearing pink. Her right eye (left side of picture) is closed a little more than HER left, probably because her right hand is pushing the side of her cheek. Mouth wide open. Sorry for the play-by-play, but I wanted to prove that we can see it and we're not just pretending :lol:

She's beautiful Kayjay!! Congrats! How are you recovering from your C-section?Our little guy is due on Oct 15th, but apparently he's a little anxious to get out early. I have been on bedrest for 6 weeks for preterm labor. I have one week left of bedrest then we should be ok if he's born then. I can't wait to see him!

Hugs,

Twister

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley...

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too. is this everyone’s experience? Can I drink it?

I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
